All RMD donations are stock transfers that go directly from your IRA to a Depository Trust Company (DTC). It CANNOT be sold or go into your bank account, and then you write a check, etc. Contact your IRA account holder/fiduciary, etc., for detailed instructions on how to make the stock transfer. A DTC facilitates the transfer of securities (NOT CASH) by indicating DTC #: 0226. Transfers are handled through Fidelity Investments and its National Financial Services subsidiary using the Fidelity account #: 676-812479. Be sure to indicate this is for the Cincinnati Parks Foundation, Pickleball at Sawyer Point.
